‘INSTITUTIONAL MURDER’ – says Mubarek family

‘We make no bones about the death of Zahid Mubarek.

He died because of institutional murder,’ said the young Asian’s uncle, Imtiaz Amin.

In response to inquiry chairman Mr Justice Keith’s report into Zahid’s murder by his cellmate at Feltham Young Offenders Institute, Amin added: ‘The report exposes a litany of failures from prison staff to senior management all of which are culpable for the circumstances in which Zahid was placed in a cell with a known racist and psychopath.

It was obvious what would happen.

‘The report represents a devastating critique of the whole prison system and it is important that something like this does not happen again.’
